"is that lily holding baby lily?" -lily's response when i showed her a picture of gracie holding her when lily was a baby.
"drama class is actually a lot of fun." -gracie (this is only humorous in that grace seemed surprised by how much she likes drama class. this from my child who we refer to as "a drama queen" when she is not around.)
"mom, you can go with my teacher and i'll stay home with japie and evan. daddy can go to work, and i'll be the mommy" -lily, in response to learning that she would be going to preschool next year instead of this year.
"mom, if you don't get rid of that smell soon, you're going to have to buy a new car." -gracie when it took me a couple of days to clean out my car after returning from a road trip.
"mommy, they have dress-ups for you!" -lily while walking by the prom dress section at macy's.
"i said the prayer "last"-erday." -lily's replacement word for "yesterday."
this nickname is about the farthest from the truth for this boy, but it was given by his para at school who is literally named mrs. cool. any nickname given by someone named cool should be revered and honored.
gigi
she's had this one for a while in honor of her sometimes goofy ways. she is the only one in the family who was genuinely surprised at her flair for drama.
beanie
this one doesn't have a nickname, so this is a variation on her middle name. she likes to be sneaky, independent and loving.
fritzy
a boy who loves dinosaurs, swords, trains and cars, but can still enjoy (and even request) the occasional barbie movie.
